[This is a text-only version of the Minicon 5 program book, created in
2009. It does not attempt to reproduce the formatting of the original
(except when doing so is trivial), but rather is meant to be as
accessible to people and computer programs as possible. It ignores
illustrations and advertisements in the program book. Errors may have
been made in transcription, but some errors here are faithfully copied
